Mother Fined $2,500 After Her 3yr Old Pees in Her Own Yard

A mother has been fined $2,500 (£1,600) after
her 3-year-old son peed in the front garden. Ashley Warden in Piedmont,
Oklahoma received the fine when her toddler Dillan was caught urinating in the
yard by a passing police officer. Dillan was being potty trained at the time
and was not near a toilet.

Ashley
told News 9: "Dillan pulled down his pants to pee outside.[Then] the cop
pulled up and asked for my licence, and told me he was going to give me a
ticket for public urination."

Dillan's
grandmother Jennifer added: "I said, 'Really? He is 3 years old', and he
said, 'It doesn't matter, it is public urination'. I said we are on our
property and he said it's in public view."

Ashley
stated that she would be fighting the fine, as Dillan didn't finish peeing
because he was interrupted by the police officer.
